This interlocking concrete permeable paver driveway is set in an ashlar pattern to create a decorative but versatile look. This driveway allows stormwater to infiltrate into the ground - instead of running off the landscape into streams and rivers where is can cause flooding and pollution.

This is a prime example of premium quality craftsmanship in the landscape design/build business. By redesigning the front entrance to create a porch/landing with an additional parking court, we significantly improved the appearance and value of the property in Rye, New York. The new driveway was constructed of a porous asphalt material which improved the stormwater management adjacent to the wetland. The landscape planting featured a variety of long blooming, native flowering perennials which attract beneficial insect species. This contributes to the successful management of the landscape with sustainable organics. The custom kinetic sculpture adds a nice finishing touch. Instead of a typical evergreen hedge, native clethra was planted on the property border to define the space while contributing fragrance, grace and pollinators to what easily could have been a less active, sterile space. Heavily planted ground cover natives such as ajuga, creeping jenny, Irish moss, sweet woodruff and geraniums made the need for weeding practically obsolete. The use of ground covers as mulch was most effective for resource management.

There is Robert's court at his country house in Mt. Tremper, New York in the Catskills State Park. He couldn't get anyone to schlep up there to install his Pro Dunk Gold Basketball System for his family. So they started digging and chopping through slate stone, mixed concrete and erected his three teenage sons' pride and joy. He says it was sometimes tough to get them to come up there for family retreats, even with a pool, but having the world class hoop now makes it easy. This is a Pro Dunk Gold Basketball System that was purchased in April of 2012. It was installed on a 29 ft wide by a 30 ft deep playing area in White Plains, NY.

A distinctive standing-seam metal roof creates an architectural connection between two shingle-roofed sections of this extensively remodeled and expanded Redmond, Washington home. Rather than simply joining the original home and new additions, this transitional element was designed to become an intentional part of the home's exterior architecture. The dark metal roofing provides a sophisticated contrast against the white siding and neighboring asphalt shingle roofs, visually breaking up the larger footprint while creating balance between the different wings of the home. The change in roofing material adds dimension, texture and architectural interest while allowing the various phases of the whole-home remodel and home addition to read as one cohesive residence. This connection is part of a substantial transformation designed around a family that loves entertaining friends and family. The project included an expanded kitchen and dining room, covered outdoor entertaining area, three-car garage addition, bonus living space, media/family room, home office, craft room, mudroom and expanded laundry room. Thoughtful exterior details such as this standing-seam metal roof connection helped integrate the new construction with the existing home while giving the completed residence the character and refinement of a thoughtfully designed custom home.
